Abstract

This paper proposes the design of a ternary inverter that uses low current as input voltage is VDD/2. When the supply voltage is set to 1 V, current supplied by a voltage source as an input voltage VDD/2 is reduced by 22.75% from 1.89µA to 1.46µA. By connecting ternary inverters back-to-back, a tritstorage element is implemented as a ternary SRAM cell. This paper also presents the first verification of read/write schemes that consider noise margins.
